My first experiment to bring real elements into a digital creation. An exploration of image based modeling with liquid. One of the main limitation for such type of 3D capture is the need for a static subject. Since liquid blend
tend to move a lot I decided to try with a mix of alcohol and Irish cream. This alcohol mix was based on a recipe I learned while working as a barman years ago.The liquids division is based on their difference in density. This natural sculpture was then captured with a series of photographs to be processed with 123d Catch. The software converts the various angles of the pictures into a 3D mesh.
